Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

First Edition. 8vo. Green spider-web patterned boards, cloth back, titles to spine and front cover gilt. Forman Brown was one of the world's leaders in puppet theatre in his day, as well as an important early gay novelist. He was a member of the Yale Puppeteers and the driving force behind the famous Turnabout Puppet Theater in Los Angeles. This is his first book, a poetry collection. ##### Frontispiece and 3 full-page woodcuts by Packard, all with spider-web patterned glassine guards. This issue with the illustrated jacket precedes the more common edition issued in wrappers, also with a jacket. This is the first book by the noted gay author who also wrote the 1933 novel Better Angel, about a young man coming to terms with his homosexuality. The novel is regarded as the first American novel to present the 'gay' experience in a healthy light.[Under the pseudonym Richard Meeker.] When it was reprinted in 1995, under the assumption that the author was no more alive, Brown stepped forward and acknowledged the novel was heavily autobiographic. ##### Inscribed on front flyleaf to Charleson Gray, another writer, most known for writing the Photoplay novelization of “The Vagabond Lover,” Rudy Vallee’s first film about a small-town boy who finds fame and romance when he joins a dance band. (1929) ##### CONDITION: Near fine, corners and edges lightly rubbed. Front pastedown chafed, probably from removal of a bookplate. In good+ dustjacket chipped at corners and spine ends; not price-clipped.…

Descrizione dello Store

Books, Historical Documents, Autographs, and Ephemera -- Burns Bizarre specializes in the eclectic. We are a merger of two former booksellers 'Books on Main' [Ventura CA] and Armadillo & Dicker [Sacramento CA.] Most of our stock is rare or out-of-print - dating from the 18th century to the present. We do not sell reprint editions or book club editions unless they differ from the original in some way that makes them independently collectible. The name Burns' Bizarre comes from one of our father's enterprises in Chicago during the 1930's -- we are proud to continue his tradition of what is now eighty years of selling things people could easily live without.…

Specializzazione
